No. 426 New City Set 6
And Huang Wan is the nephew of Liu Zhang's grandmother. Huang Wan was also a famous person in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, as famous as Xun Shuang, and in the end, because of his participation in the murder of Dong Zhuo, he was imprisoned by Li Yu Guo Yan, who then invaded Chang'an City, and finally died of illness in prison. Therefore, when Liu Zhang sent people to Jingzhou to meet Huang Wan's wife, Lai Min followed his sister into Shu.
As Liu Zhang's guest, Lai Min often follows Liu Zhang to participate in various banquets or meetings held by Liu Zhang.
However, compared with Fei Guan, who is highly trusted by Liu Zhang, Lai Min's status under Liu Zhang's command is much worse.
It was precisely because of Lai Min that Liu Zhang's relative sat arrogantly in Jin Juejun's territory, and when his intentions were unclear, these Yizhou scholars did not dare to sit together to negotiate.
The first floor of the teahouse is full of small cases, bamboo mats, and the layout is a little simple, but these scholars came here to investigate the reality of Jin Juejun, and they don't care about these.
Soon, after explaining the prices of the goods in the teahouse, the shopkeeper brought a steaming large pottery teapot and three large, two small and three pottery tea bowls to Changyu's table.
Zhang Yu poured two bowls of tea for the two children first, it was cold outside, and the two children followed him to stand in the cold wind for a long time, and they were already numb. After all, Ren Fan is a boy, and he is frizzy, and he doesn't care about anything, so he wants to raise his neck when he picks up the tea bowl and pour the hot tea in the tea bowl into his mouth.
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper on the side seemed to have expected it for a long time, and immediately snatched the tea bowl in Ren Fan's hand like lightning.
"What do you mean by this, since you sell tea, isn't this tea for guests to drink?" Ren Fan was annoyed, as if he stood up and questioned the other party.
However, his legs were already numb, and he struggled a few times, but he was not able to stand up at once.
"Hehehe, the guest officer laughed, this is a teahouse, of course, it sells tea to guests! It's just that this little brother's temperament is too anxious, and you are not drinking tea in this way, but committing suicide. The tea in this teapot, however, is brewed with freshly boiled hot water, and if you don't cool it, you will drink it in your mouth and it will not be scalded to death, but it will be scalded.
Therefore, a few guest officers, when you drink the first cup of tea, it is best to cool it first. The shopkeeper was not angry, but replied with a smile.
"Oh, why didn't you remind us when you served tea?" Ren Fan asked as if he had caught the other party's flaws.
"Hehehe, little guest officer, the little one thought you could read and write, so he didn't dare to say more. If you don't believe me, if you look at the menu on the table, aren't the biggest words on the menu already clearly written? You see, it doesn't say 'The first bowl of tea, it's hot, it's best to cool it first.'" 'Is it?' The shopkeeper was still smiling, and he explained with his hand.
As soon as they heard this, Ren Fan and Ren Ping'er looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's fingers, and there was a rectangle on it, which was not big or small, and it was as big as A4 in later generations, and it was slightly yellowed. It was densely covered with paper with words written on it.
Ren Fan's little face immediately turned red, not that he didn't notice it, but that he was too anxious just now and didn't observe it carefully.
Zhang Yu had already seen the paper on the table, and had already finished reading the contents of the paper, except for the sentence reminded by the shopkeeper, although the words on it were written very elegantly, but Zhang Yu knew that these were all dish names or food names. Just now, Ren Fan was almost scalded by the tea, not because Changyu reacted slowly and didn't stop him in time, but because the shopkeeper's actions were too fast.
In ancient times, literacy was one thing
After listening to the conversation between the nephew and the shopkeeper, Zhang Yu had already seen that the shopkeeper in front of him was not good, so he asked the other questions in the teahouse that had just found out that the shopkeeper had a problem, and he wanted to ask in his heart, and said: "Little brother, I heard that you talk well, and you seem to know how to read, you must not be a mortal, in this case, why are you doing cheap business here?" ”
"Hehehe!" This time, the shopkeeper asked, sneered three times, and replied unceremoniously: "Cheap business? The villain's name is Liu Thirty-one, and he was born a lowly person, if it weren't for my son-in-law's appreciation and promotion, maybe he would have already filled the ravine. This gentleman thinks that being a shopkeeper in a teahouse is a cheap business. However, my son-in-law said that there is no cheap industry in the world, and the lowly ones are just people's hearts.
Confucianism is not involved in production, and even Confucius said that Fan Chi, who asked him about farming, is a villain, but if Fan Chi can let the peasants cultivate the fields and receive twice as much grain per acre, is he still a villain? Not to mention, the current Confucian scholars and the children of the great families have all forgotten that who provided them with the food they ate and the clothes they wore on their stomachs?
By the way, under the rule of my son-in-law, there are no longer a few people who are as literate as me, and they do not deserve so much attention from this gentleman. ”
The second junior of this shop is Liu Thirty-one, and he is also one of the three cultivators who are most valued by him in Jin Jue's current emperor training program. The other two people, one is Liu Gang, the former general of Fanghan City, and the other is Liu Shan.
However, Jin Jue has already seen that Liu Shan does not seem to have any intention of getting involved.
This time in Shu, Jin Jue took both of them with him, and Liu Gang also participated in the bean-sprinkling plan to become a soldier, and he was the only one who participated in this sub-plan to be trained.
It's not that Jin Jue doesn't give other trainees a chance, but because other trainees surnamed Liu are either too young or have no experience in leading soldiers at all.
Because Liu Thirty-one was too young, Jin Jue did not participate in the plan to scatter beans into soldiers, but directly asked him to directly recruit 3,000 Shu soldiers in Luo County.
Some time ago, Liu Thirty-one had been training in the city of Luoxian.
Liu Gang and other cultivators surnamed Liu did not object to this, speaking of which, at the beginning, Liu Thirty-one's contribution was much greater than Liu Gang's, and it was only because of his young age that Jin Jue had been suppressing his official position.
What's more, it is also a fact that Liu Thirty-one is not yet eighteen years old, and he was born with a baby face, if he goes out to participate in the bean scattering plan to become a soldier, the chance of success will be very small.
"What, you're that Liu Thirty-One?" As soon as Liu Thirty-one finished registering, this time, it was Ren Ping'er's turn to point at him in surprise and ask in surprise.
In fact, neither Jin Jue nor Liu Thirty-one expected that Liu Thirty-one's name was second only to Jin Jue himself in Jin Jue's army.
